Top 10 Water Experiments for Kids: For Learning!

This list of 10 top water experiments for kids is part of a fun top 10 series that I’m participating with a bunch (25+) of kid bloggers. We’re all featuring a Top 10 list of ways the kids can learn this summer. You can find the full list of everyone’s top 10 posts at This Reading Mama. These are fun ones you want to check out!

Water experiments are a favorite of the boys. Water in general is. But learning with water is even better, right? And it’s always fun to experiment with things, because the kids don’t really even know they’re learning anything. It’s all about observing and taking part to see what happens!

Plus water experiments are fun for summer learning! You can take these outsides and really explore! And that’s what this series is all about, keeping the kids learning all summer long… while school is out!

These are my top 10 ways for kids to experiment with water, and they can learn a little in the process this summer.

Learning with water experiments for kids!

Add mirrors (aluminum foil would work too!) to a tub of water and observe the reflections. From My Nearest and Dearest.

Thanks for including my post, Jamie! I also love the changing states of water experiment. I did it once in my first grade classroom (with the addition of some salt during the ice stage) because a child had asked why cars had all that white stuff on them in the winter time. (We use salt on the snowy roads here.) Nothing teaches like hands-on doing!
